During the gala, many conniving starlets, who went wearing their best dresses, would go around begging for a way to become acquainted with these big shots.

  Those who were more calculative would not take such resources to heart. They were hoping more for a chance to hang out with the super rich and famous. Hooking up with any one of them would give them a ticket to a life of infinite wealth!

  When that happened, would there be a need to fight for productions or worry over acting opportunities? It was hard to be an artist, and often required them to be concerned with condescension and hidden rules. In contrast, being the wife of a wealthy man was different; they would be admired and adored by many! Now, would that not be a much easier life?

  Armed with their various ambitions, these celebrities would try all ways and means to shine above the rest on that one night.

  Of course, her manager did not harbor such a goal with his original intention. His actress had no lack of resources.

  Many media reporters would be present to cover the star-studded event. There would be great publicity and exposure.

  The actress did not attend any programs during the new-year break. While many starlets with the same rank as her had been busy putting themselves on spring celebration programs, talk shows, and entertainment broadcasts to increase their exposure, his charge had disappeared from the spotlight for more than half a month. Thus, she would need a prolific event to maintain her celebrity status.

  The Bazaar Charity Night was one such opportunity.

  It was a pity that the actress’s father got into an accident just about this time.

  The manager visited her father at the hospital with the head producer.

  As a result, everyone in Huanyu caught wind of this matter.

  A few from the upper management got together to discuss it and eventually agreed that, even though Mu Yazhe was no longer leading the media company, they still had to pay a visit as a matter of courtesy.

  However, somehow or rather, it turned into a grand affair.

  Many senior executives came to visit with their get-well gifts and wreaths, which lined up the entire hospital corridor. More than that, several artists also turned up at the hospital.

  A few patients and their relatives next to Yun Yecheng’s bed dashed out of their respective area to take a look. They were astonished to see so many famous stars walking in and out of the room. This was when they realized that an important patient was staying next to them.

  This was also how the hospital’s senior management discovered his extraordinary background. The hospital director immediately ordered the older man’s room to be upgraded into their VIP ward, whereby four nurses would attend to him all day long.

  Meanwhile, the media also found out about his hospitalization and lay in wait around the hospital to report, firsthand, any development.

  These came much later, of course.

  Having just transferred to the special ward, Yun Yecheng finally regained consciousness and woke up.

  Yun Shishi was out having dinner when she received the news. She immediately ditched her food and rushed back to the hospital.

  Inside the hospital room, a nurse was seen carefully wiping the tears from the old man’s eyes. As he was unable to close his eyelids completely, someone had to help him wipe away the secreted tears or else they might infect his wounds.

  She dashed up to the side of the bed, grabbed hold of the railing, and cautiously spoke to her father as she looked at him. “Dad, can you hear me?”


  She dared not touch him where almost every inch of his body was covered with burned marks. The only thing she could do was talk to him with care.

  Her father’s mangled mouth was open, but no sound could be heard. No one would have thought that this person was still alive if not for his chest that went up and down.
